    • Description:

    • Whether you eat at the original location, or El Guero's swankier digs up north on Oracle Road, you can bet that you won't forget your first visit to El Guero Canelo's. The restaurant evokes perfectly the traditional Mexican street food scene, which elevates the outdoor patio and cooking trailer to new levels of foodie ecstasy. Although El Guero gets most of the attention around town, Tucson is filled with equally good chefs working out of hot dog carts and trailers. But this has become a southside institution, and a must-stop for adventurous visitors curious about what exactly goes on a Sonoran Hot Dog. Whether you play it safe with a burrito, or load your food with everything at the Mexican fixings bar, this is down-home Mexican cooking in one of Tucson's favorite comfort food spots.

      Good hotdog, worth a trip.

    • We stopped in at the Oracle location on our way to the resort in Tucson. The Sonoran hotdog had been recommended by a coworker. It was a fun place and looked popular for lunch after...

      generous food quantities

    • These guys are good. Their tacos, caramelos, and sonoran style hot dogs are excellent. The caramelos can be split between 2 people. Their soft drinks are "hecho en Mexico".
